EAGLE, Neb. -- Authorities in southeast Nebraska are investigating what is being called an attempted child abduction.

According to Cass County Sheriff Robert Sorenson, his office is investigating an incident that occurred Tuesday night in Eagle. Sorenson said it was reported that a nine-year-old girl was walking on a park trail west of the Eagle Public Pool.As the child approached a public parking area off of Applewood Drive, she reportedly observed what she described as a "smaller vehicle that was brown in color and rusted".

A man the child did not know or recognize reportedly asked her if she would come with him to look for his dog. According to the report, the man also told her he would take her to get a drink before they looked for his dog. The child then ran away from the situation, according to Sorenson.
